Standing in nothing but a towel.
His right hand holding the front of towel just below his belly button, keeping it from dropping to the floor.
Behind him, in his bed, is a female, sitting up, covers covering her breasts, looking annoyed at me.
“There’s nothing else to check for here,” Quinn says.
“What?”
“Cullen called me,” he says. “He figured you’d be here looking for Archer.”
“That’s exactly why I’m here,” I say.
“Well, Archer isn’t here.”
“Where is he then?”
Quinn shrugs his shoulders.
I look to the female in his bed.
“That’s Fern,” Quinn says. “She’s spending the night with me. That okay with you, Jaci? I know you’re walking two different paths. Sometimes you’re aThorn. Sometimes you’re anHeir. Must get confusing.”
“Just tell me where Archer is,” I demand.
“I don’t know where he is,” Quinn says. “Nobody does. Okay? Nobody here does. In fact, if you want the truth, nobody even cares.”
“What?”
“He chose to be aSavage. Maybe he’s good at what he does, but we all know the truth. Archer Amatti is anHeir. He only opted to be aSavagefor revenge.”
“On me,” I say. “And my family.”
“That’s not my problem right now,” Quinn says.
“I guess not,” I say. “Your only problem is getting me out of this bedroom so you can get your dick wet.”
“Oh, trust me, my dick’s been wet,” Quinn smirks. “I just want to get it wet again. And again. All night long.”
I curl my lip. “You swear on your life he’s not here?”
“He’s not here, Jaci,” Quinn says. “Feel free to waste your time looking. I’ll let Cullen know you were here. He wants to keep you safe. He wants to protect you. I’ve never seen him act this way before.”
That raises a whole bunch of other questions but I don’t have time for them right now.
I spin around and leave Quinn’s bedroom.
I leaveSentral.
I need to find Archer.
No matter what.
As I start to walk away fromSentralI hear someone whistle at me.
I gasp and turn, expecting to see Archer.
It’s not Archer.
